Mother of the Bride & Groom Dresses

Celebrating the big day for your son or daughter? It’s a big moment for you as mom, too! No matter which side you’re on, we’ve got stunning mother of the bride and groom dresses that are perfect for this momentous occasion. From knee-length frocks to long gowns, get ready for the wedding day that’s all the more special for mom.

Going for a shorter dress? Find a design that stands out from the rest of the bridal party without overshadowing the bride. We love the effortlessly elegant look of a shift dress and jacket set in a classic and figure-flattering silhouette. Or try a long-sleeve shift dress with stylish details: crochet lacing, fringe rims, an embellished neckline, illusion panels and more. For a daytime ceremony and reception, stick with lighter colors and airy fabrics—don’t be afraid to play with brighter patterns like floral or embroidery. For an evening event, it’s time to turn up the glam! A cocktail dress with glittery accents and allover beading is sure to sparkle and shine, especially on the dance floor. Try sheath silhouettes with draping or faux-wrap shapes for extra movement.

These floor-length frocks are sure to make jaws drop! Check out plus size mother of the bride and groom dresses in longer lengths in must-have styles and silhouettes—A-line, empire-waist, off the shoulder, belted, and so much more. Going for a traditional formal look? Try a lace gown with pleated panels, tiers or ruffles for plenty of movement. For more contemporary looks, check out long dresses with oh-so-trendy details like a front slit, colorblocked designs or shoulder cutouts. Hello, modern mom!
